Hi All,
Some of the upstairs chipboard floors in my house are annoyingly soft underfoot. The reason is that the chipboard sections have been sawn in order to lift them and install central heating pipework underneath. Obviously, this completely negates the original stiffness of the floor, produced by the interlocking nature of the boards.
I really do not want to replace all the chipboard if I can help it. I'm looking for other ways to restore stiffness to the floor, such as, say, laying something over the top of the chipboard. Would laminate flooring do this?
Any suggestions, please?
Many thanks,
Al
